GSBA Scholarship Fund

Our Mission

To invest in the education of a diverse group of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and allied students who have the capacity and vision to be the next generation of leaders working to create a better world for all.

Our Vision

Diverse leaders who have the vision, compassion and capability to solve global issues and secure human rights for all.

The GSBA Scholarship Fund awards educational scholarships to Washington State LGBTQ and allied students who exhibit leadership potential, demonstrate strong academic abilities, and are actively involved in school and community organizations.

Our scholars represent a diverse group of students who have dreams of making our community and the world a better place, and each of them possesses the skills, talents, and dedication to make those dreams a reality. GSBA realizes that today's students are tomorrow's leaders and is committed to supporting our community's future leaders by providing financial resources, role-modeling and hope to outstanding LGBTQ and allied students, many who have no traditional means of support.

In the 25 years of the GSBA Scholarship Fund, we have awarded over $2 million to over 300 students. In 2016, we supported 55 scholars with $410,000 in educational scholarships.
